Key Points

  • Congress is officially celebrating the 125th anniversary of the Army Nurse Corps, which was created on February 2, 1901. This group marked the first time women and professional nurses were officially part of the U.S. military.
  • The resolution highlights the long history of these nurses, including those who served in major conflicts like World War I, World War II, and the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. It honors the more than 600 nurses buried at Arlington National Cemetery.
  • This is a ceremonial action meant to express gratitude for the medical care and sacrifices made by Army nurses over the last century. It does not change any laws, create new taxes, or provide new government funding.
